Proteomics of Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans Outer Membrane Vesicles
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans is an oral and systemic pathogen associated with aggressive forms of periodontitis and with endocarditis. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released by this species have been demonstrated to deliver effector proteins such as cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) and leukotoxin (LtxA) into human host cells and to act as triggers of innate immunity upon carriage of ...
متن کاملGreen Tea Catechin-Inactivated Viral Vaccine Platform
Traditionally, chemical agents such as formalin (FA) and β-propiolactone (BPL) have long been used for the preparation of inactivated vaccines or toxoids. It has been shown that FA extensively modifies vaccine antigens and thus affects immunogenicity profiles, sometimes compromising the protective efficacy of the vaccines or even exacerbating the disease upon infection. In this study, we show t...
متن کاملChemopreventive effect of green tea catechin on rat tongue carcinogenesis induced by 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide
Treatments for oral cancer may have significant adverse effect on the patient’s activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life (QOL). However, foods may offer potential for chemoprevention. In recent years, attention has been focused on the anti-tumor and carcinogenesis-inhibiting actions of green tea. (−)Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), the main component of green tea catechins, has be...
متن کاملBeneficial Effects of Tea and the Green Tea Catechin Epigallocatechin-3-gallate on Obesity.
Green tea has been shown to have beneficial effects against cancer, obesity, atherosclerosis, diabetes, bacterial and viral infections, and dental caries. The catechin (-)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) has shown the highest biological activity among green tea catechins (GTCs) in most of the studies. While several epidemiological studies have shown the beneficial effects of tea and GTCs on o...
